About — SC.01

The story behind the lens.

What began as one small project is now a recognized production firm defining how Ethiopian stories reach the world.

Founding Story

From one project to a movement.

Founded by Solomon Taye, the agency began with a vision to transform Ethiopia’s advertising landscape. Each production sharpened the craft; each collaboration grew the roster — until YES Multimedia became a firm specializing in video production and influencer marketing that brands across the country trust.

Our mission: produce high-quality, engaging and culturally relevant content across film, television and all digital platforms — and empower Ethiopian creative talent while doing it.

“The leading catalyst for Ethiopian creative media — seamlessly blending traditional storytelling with digital innovation.”

The Timeline

How we got here.

  1. 012018

    Founded in Addis Ababa

    Solomon Taye starts YES Multimedia with a single conviction: Ethiopian stories deserve international production values, produced at home rather than outsourced abroad.

  2. 02The build-out

    From one service to seven

    Film and television production widens into digital advertising, music video, live streaming, influencer marketing, PR and audio post — every discipline brought in-house instead of subcontracted.

  3. 03The roster

    A creator network, not a vendor list

    A standing roster of Ethiopian creators forms, matched to briefs editorially so campaigns are produced with the talent rather than around them.
